Description

"What can dementia, stroke, and other neurological disorders teach us about how the brain creates personal identity and a unified sense of self? In exploring this question, Dr. Todd E. Feinberg offers an intriguing scientific exploration of the neurobiological origins or the self. By examining what goes wrong with the sense of self in individuals with brain dysfunction, Feinberg presents a new theory with far-reaching implications for the link between brain and identity."--Jacket.
